SPOILER WARNING: What Marvel Group Has Been Spotted On ‘Iron Man 3’ Set?

An awesome spoiler lies ahead! You have been warned! Today via HannibalDelarge’s Tumblr a set image from ‘Iron Man 3’ popped up that featuring the logo of a familiar group…

 

The the infamous terrorist organization A.I.M. (Advanced Idea Mechanics) apparently will have a role in ‘Iron Man 3’? Now that is unexpected.

Unfamiliar with A.I.M.? Well, A.I.M. is an organization of brilliant scientists and their hirelings dedicated to the acquisition of power and the overthrow of all government by technological means. A.I.M. was organized during World War II as the scientific research division of the subversive military organization Hydra. It supplied hardware and weapons to governmental and quasi-governmental agencies. Some time after this Nick Fury of S.H.I.E.L.D. exposed A.I.M. to be a subversive organization. A.I.M.’s activities have been covert since.

A.I.M. also created M.O.D.O.K. (Mental Organism Designed Only for Killing), an artificially mutated human being with an enormous head and a stunted body possessing superhuman intelligence and the ability to generate mental energy bolts and force fields.

Does this mean we could get a A.I.M./Hydra team-up in the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe? May we get a M.O.D.O.K. easter egg of perhaps an appearance?
